Simultaneous with the closing of the transaction, Rocky Gap will be added to the existing master lease agreement between VICI Properties and Century (the "Century Master Lease") and annual rent will increase by $15.5 million. Additionally, the terms of the Century Master Lease will be extended such that, upon closing of the transaction, the lease will have a full 15-year initial base lease term, with four 5-year tenant renewal options. The tenant’s obligations under the Century Master Lease will continue to be guaranteed by Century. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals and closing conditions and is expected to close in mid-2023.

On August 30, 2022, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Great Wolf, under which it agreed to provide up to $127.0 million of mezzanine financing to fund the development of Great Wolf Lodge Gulf Coast Texas, a more than $200.0 million, 532-room indoor water park resort project in Webster, Texas. The Great Wolf Gulf Coast Texas Loan has an initial term of 3 years with two 12-month extension option, subject to certain conditions, and is expected to be funded with cash on hand in accordance with a construction draw schedule.

The Company also received a call right to acquire the real estate of Canyon Ranch Austin upon stabilization, and a purchase option for the real estate of Canyon Ranch Tucson in Tucson, Arizona and Canyon Ranch Lenox in Lenox, Massachusetts, should Canyon Ranch elect to sell the real estate of either property through a sale leaseback. If any of the call right or purchase options are exercised, Canyon Ranch would continue to operate the applicable wellness resorts subject to a long-term triple net lease with VICI Properties.

CDN has assumed all day-to-day operations of the four golf courses and all of the Company's former employees at the four golf courses are employees of CDN. The Company continues to own the golf courses within its taxable REIT subsidiary, VICI Golf LLC. The management agreement has a term of 20 years with two five-year renewal options.

2022 Guidance

The Company is updating AFFO guidance for the full year 2022. The Company estimates AFFO for the year ending December 31, 2022 will be between $1,682.0 million and $1,692.0 million, or between $1.91 and $1.92 per diluted common share. Guidance does not include the impact on operating results from any possible future acquisitions or dispositions, capital markets activity, or other non-recurring transactions.

The following is a summary of the Company’s updated full-year 2022 guidance:

		Updated Guidance				Prior Guidance
For the Year Ending December 31, 2022 (in millions except per share):		Low		High		Low		High
Estimated Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO)		$1,682.0		$1,692.0		$1,660.0		$1,690.0
Estimated Adjusted Funds From Operations (AFFO) per common diluted share		$1.91		$1.92		$1.89		$1.92
Estimated Weighted Average Common Share Count at Year End		879.3		879.3		879.3		879.3

The above per share estimates reflect the dilutive effect of the pending 11,380,980 shares related to the June 2022 Forward Sale Agreement and 3,918,807 shares related to the August 2022 Forward Sale Agreement as calculated under the treasury stock method. VICI OP Units held by a third party are reflected as non-controlling interests and the income allocable to them is deducted from net income to arrive at net income attributable to common stockholders and AFFO; accordingly, guidance represents AFFO per share attributable to common stockholders based solely on outstanding shares of VICI common stock.

In determining AFFO, the Company adjusts for certain items that are otherwise included in determining net income attributable to common stockholders, the most comparable GAAP financial measure. For more information, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” The Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of its stated AFFO guidance to net income attributable to common stockholders because it is unable to predict with reasonable certainty the amount of the change in non-cash allowance for credit losses under ASU No. 2016-13 – Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326) (“ASC 326”) for a future period. The non-cash change in allowance for credit losses under ASC 326 with respect to a future period is dependent upon future events that are entirely outside of the Company’s control and may not be reliably predicted, including its tenants’ respective financial performance, fluctuations in the trading price of their common stock, credit ratings and outlook (each to the extent applicable), as well as broader macroeconomic performance. Based on past results, the impact of these adjustments could be material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s reported GAAP results.

The estimates set forth above reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release. The estimates set forth above may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors and there can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth above.

This additional information is being provided as a supplement to the information in this release and our other filings with the SEC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release presents Funds From Operations (“FFO”), FFO per share, Adjusted Funds From Operations (“AFFO”), AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, which are not required by, or presented in accordance with, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be construed as alternatives to net income or as an indicator of operating performance (as determined in accordance with GAAP). We believe FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA provide a meaningful perspective of the underlying operating performance of our business.

FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that is considered a supplemental measure for the real estate industry and a supplement to GAAP measures. Consistent with the definition used by The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), we define FFO as net income (or loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding (i) gains (or losses) from sales of certain real estate assets, (ii) depreciation and amortization related to real estate, (iii) gains and losses from change in control, (iv) impairment write-downs of certain real estate assets and investments in entities when the impairment is directly attributable to decreases in the value of depreciable real estate held by the entity and (v) our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure that we use as a supplemental operating measure to evaluate our performance. We calculate AFFO by adding or subtracting from FFO non-cash leasing and financing adjustments, non-cash change in allowance for credit losses, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of real estate investments, amortization of debt issuance costs and original issue discount, other non-cash interest expense, non-real estate depreciation (which is comprised of the depreciation related to our golf course operations), capital expenditures (which are comprised of additions to property, plant and equipment related to our golf course operations), impairment charges related to non-depreciable real estate, gains (or losses) on debt extinguishment and interest rate swap settlements, other non-recurring, non-cash transactions, our proportionate share of non-cash adjustment from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate (including the amortization of any basis differences) with respect to certain of the foregoing, and non-cash adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest with respect to certain of the foregoing.

We calculate Adjusted EBITDA by adding or subtracting from AFFO contractual interest expense (including the impact of the forward-starting interest rate swap and treasury locks) and interest income (collectively, interest expense, net), income tax expense and our proportionate share of such adjustments from our investment in unconsolidated affiliate.

These non-GAAP financial measures: (i) do not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP; (ii) should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of operating performance or to cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities; and (iii) are not alternatives to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. In addition, these measures should not be viewed as measures of liquidity, nor do they measure our ability to fund all of our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions to our stockholders, to fund capital improvements, or to make interest payments on our indebtedness. Investors are also cautioned that FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other real estate companies, including REITs, due to the fact that not all real estate companies use the same definitions. Our presentation of these measures does not replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliations of net income to FFO, FFO per share, AFFO, AFFO per share and Adjusted EBITDA are included in this release.
